First of all - INSOMNIA SUCKS! I could not go to sleep last night - I think I finally fell asleep around 3 am and never did sleep well. My alarm going off at 6:05 this morning was dreadful! I may have gotten a little bit spoiled to having 2 days off in a row - that always tends to mess up my sleep pattern a little bit. I just realized when I got up this morning and started looking forward to my next day off that it's 8 days away. This week is going to be a little bit of a hellish week because we are crazy short staffed going into what should be a very busy weekend. AND we have fall rollout which we are executing on NO payroll.... which means that I will be there endless hours.
Caty and I have not decided on anything that we would like to do for the 4th.... I haven't even looked into options quite honestly. I'm sure that there are some pretty amazing things to do in DC, but I am a bit deterred by the idea of traffic. I work that day until 4, which could be longer if we are crazy busy. I'm not sure if that puts me getting home too late to really put anything on our agenda. Will look into this....
I'm trying not to be a slave to the scale, because I do step on it at least every day if not multiple times per day... but I have gained 3 pounds back and I'm pretty bummed about it. I want to continue to see the scale move in the OTHER direction. I am still at my Sephora prize weight, but I have to focus on continuing to lose. Exercise is going to be the key here... I have to find a way to get my tired and lazy ass to the gym! I really wish that I could figure out how to get out of the bed in the mornings at 5 am and be an early morning exerciser. I just can't make myself go to sleep before midnight generally and 5 hours per night just doesn't cut it. Back in the day I used to LOVE going to the gym and any other physical activity I could get it. The more of a fatass I have become, it seems WAY more like a chore than like something that I dig. Bah!
And lastly... I decided to buy new luggage because my old set was getting pretty skank. I tend to only think about it when I am actually packing a bag for travel - which then feels too late to do anything about it. I found an adorable set online that I decided to order off of Amazon and it arrived yesterday. I wasn't sure if I would like it as much in person, but I took a gamble because I have an Amazon Prime account so I get free 2 day shipping and free returns. I decided that I kinda love it - hopefully the price that I paid for it isn't overly reflective in the quality of the pieces. I would prefer that they not fall apart during my trip to Arizona! Here is a peek at my new bags... cute!
